Perhaps after it catches a bit of steam, add search criteria by team number, game name-year (which you already have I suppose), and maybe even search by various robot components.

How about adding a space for teams to write a bit about their design, design process, cool features, lessons learned, etc.? These bots are gorgeous from a distance, but even more impressive engineering marvels when you can get the inside scoop and peek "under the hood".
The two previous posts mirror what the future of FRC Designs is. To create a database that can be searched by team number to see how designs have changed over the years.

An "under the hood" or "design journal" page is already in the works for FRC Designs. The idea for this section is to create an open source area (Virtual Book) that teams can post their design journals and descriptions of designs.

By the way, designs older than 2008 are more than welcome! I only included 2008 - 2011 because that is all I had to start with. Other thoughts are more than welcome! I am looking forward to expanding the site and meeting great teams in the process. Thanks in advance for more feedback!

Matt
